Definition: The word "California" comes from the Spanish word "Califórnia". It was originally a part of the American Southwest, which was named after the indigenous California tribe, the Sierra Indians. The term evolved through centuries as it spread to other parts of the world and eventually became "California", a state in the U.S. In the context of California, the term is used to denote a specific geographical area located on the west coast of North America, specifically in the United States. It encompasses the states of California, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, and some portion of Washington and parts of British Columbia. The state has its own unique culture, history, and customs. California's official state motto is "The State of California", which means "the land of California". It was adopted on February 5, 1847 as the official name for the new state following an international congress in San Francisco. The state also uses a flag with the California state flag in place of the golden state seal. In addition to its geographical location and cultural significance, California is known for its high productivity agricultural industry, which has been an important contributor to the country's economy since its creation. It is also home to many iconic landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge, Yosemite National Park, and Santa Fe Trail.
